What color should I paint these wheels? I've been thinking silver/rally gold/pink/white. Black is out of the question because I already have black wheels

Good progress.
someone correct me if I'm wrong .... be careful with the rear end as I do believe it is not as beefy as a GT's would be.

Check out the link in my signature, I did a 3.8 to Cobra swap recently, but I had a donor Cobra to get parts from. Have you sourced out a 5.0 wiring harness and computer? The 3.8 one won't work. I believe you said you're gong the T5 route, so you'll need a new pedal assembly as well, to add the clutch pedal. All the pedals are in one unit, you can't just add the clutch pedal.

The front of the engine bay does not disassemble, the radiator support is welded in. But you should be able to pull the engine as-is if you get a couple of buddies to help. While you pull the engine back, your buddies can tilt the engine and tranny up so you get the clearance you need.

okay, thanks!

Sooooo... I painted the wheels pink... but I don't think I have a big enough ego to be sporting around pink wheels. lol, probably going to paint them silver instead.

The pink looks really cool in motion though: http://blog.reallymeansounds.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/esc_0081_copy.jpg

So its she then?

Anyway dont use those black wheels you have PLZ! And I vote silver. But maybe you should find a set of stang specific wheels because the problem with others is that the offset is really never correct. IMHO

Please don't assume things about people, especially trying to make yourself come off as rude. Everyone has different taste in vehicles, I respect yours, so please respect mine. Thanks
